Great location. We visited Cape May, Wildwood, Sea Isle, and Atlantic City. Tom’s property is ideal for beach lovers and the campsite offers much privacy. Tom responded quickly to all communication. We had a great weekend boon-docking with our RV.

I liked the privacy offered and we got to visit four of the local beaches. Owner is responsive and we enjoyed our stay.

Tom’s land was a perfect place to spend the evening. It was secluded, quiet and had lots of firewood to burn! We would definitely stay again!

Toms place was perfect, just an empty space in a field, but that’s exactly what we wanted. Space to do our own thing. Felt private and secluded from surroundings. PLENTY of firewood to use. Would stay again!

The lot is very quiet and peaceful. The area is quite dark, perfect for star gaming. The host was responsive to questions as well as providing information

had a great experience camping on toms land. It was such a great night we saw 25 shooting stars! It was really close to where we needed to go Ocean City and Wildwood. We got to hang out with the goats. I highly recommend. It was a little buggy so I definitely recommend bringing some things for that. Other than that it was great experience all around. thank you so much for having us.

Had a nice time tent camping here to kick off a beach trip, nice open area to pull in and set up. Fire pit was nice to cook over and enjoy the quiet. In the morning there was a lot of nats in the tent which was annoying but can be prevented.

Very convenient location to visit the various beaches in Cape May county. Even though I was a bit anxious to camp with no amenities, we were able to make it work with a privacy tent, a water bladder, shower pump and WAG bags 😱.
We recommend for campers who want to camp in peace.

My partner and I LOVED sleeping on Tom’s land. It was a last minute trip booked the night before checking in, Tom responded quick and was very helpful and happy to have us. The directions he gave to us were very easy to follow, we made it there with no problems. I loved seeing the goats as we came and left (they are so sweet). He allowed us to scavenge for wood and there was plenty of options, with the metal fire-ring and wood we were able to enjoy yummy meals and s’mores over the fire. If I’m visiting the area, I will definitely be booking this spot again, many memories were made and I’d love to make more.

Easy to find and directions were clear. My kids loved being able to feed the goats! Tom was quick to respond with any questions we had. We were in the very first campsite. It was a very sunny spot in the afternoon so next time we will be sure to have a canopy to provide shade. Strathmere beach was about a 15 min drive 20 with high traffic. There is a grocery store about 1.5 miles down the road which was so convenient for grabbing ice and water bottles. 10/10 recommend. We plan to use this site again in the future! 😀

Amazing campsite! Nice and close to everything without being in the middle of everything! We really enjoyed the peace and quiet, surrounded by nature around and the stars above! Host was great, very easy to contact and super friendly. Also, GOATS!

Great spot to pitch a tent for camping close to the beach! Directions on how to get there were very clear and we loved hanging out by the fire pit. Will definitely be back if we're in the area again :)

Tom's spot was EXACTLY what we were looking for! We have an off-grid skoolie and wanted to spend Memorial Day down in the OC/Sea Isle City/Cape May area. By far the most beautiful beaches in NJ!!
Tom's place was within 25 minutes of all beaches, quiet, safe, with great energy - even though it's on a main road which grants fantastic access to everything, it felt secluded. He provided us with water whenever we asked (it was our maiden voyage and we made some rookie water usage mistakes), which was awesome. He also gave us great pointers about when to leave to miss out on holiday weekend traffic northbound. Our trip home was smooth as silk.
The clear night sky gave us a real show and we loved the fire pit. Plus our pup had the best time roaming free and happy.
So good we already booked out 4th of July - can't wait to go back!

The camp was easy to find, even in dark. Beautiful private site in the back. It was very quiet and I slept well and felt safe there. Easy access to many beach areas. Will come again if I'm in the area!

Tom is a great communicator and very easy going. He answered texts quickly. The instructions for how to access the property were easy to follow. Came in well after dark and got to the site with no problems. It’s a short drive to the closest beach, Sea Isle City. We used the site as a home base for going to the beach, so it was great.

A trash can would be very helpful. And some cut wood , we brought some along and there is a lot of wood to scavenge for but a small stack would have been been nice. No potty so we brought our own. And the directions to get there are all incorrect. Thankfully we were able to call Tom eventually but wasted a lot of time trying to follow what was sent to us.

This is a great spot! The back camping site is nice and private and offers plenty of area to set up. Everything you could need is super close and in a very nice area. Definitely being plenty of bug spray. Tom was super nice and his goats are a blast to hangout with, would absolutely go back!
